This IHIP curriculum provides clinicians, including medical doctors, nursing personnel, care coordinators, case managers, health service navigators, and front desk managers, with the information they need to educate staff and other stakeholders with guidance on how to replicate models of care developed to engage and retain hard-to-reach populations into HIV medical care. It also can serve as a quality improvement initiative geared to helping agencies build their capacity to reach and serve people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) from marginalized and underserved populations that are not engaged in care, are unstable in or sporadic to care, and/or have fallen out of care.
